\"shanghai-t\"<\/a><\/p>\n

during my trip to shanghai last week, i was curious to see the local fashion creations. by chance, i found them on both change le lu and xin le lu. names like even penniless, liu2, na(too)<\/a>, ne!ther nor (onebyone), estune, jade en plus are all part of the emerging scene.<\/p>\n

as items, the garments are surprisingly good (and surprisingly expensive). however, on a collection level, much work will need to be done. identities are nowhere to be found. there is no\u00a0clear sense that they had something they need to communicate.\u00a0the looks are all pretty similar, even though everyone is trying to be different. one wish there is a master to lead, much like\u00a0rei kawakubo with\u00a0junya watanabe,\u00a0tao kurihara (tao), and\u00a0jun takahashi (undercover).<\/p>\n

p.s. \u00a0i fully enjoyed the sports of spotting the real from the fakes. lots of factories made excess products and leak them out without the labels, as in mutli-stripe knit boxers, calvin klein briefs, and beams reversible beanies. fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
